The article is aimed at making the reader familiar with the basics of eye tracking as well as its terminology and at making them aware of the fact that eye-tracking supported linguistic and glottodidactic research, being conducted in Poland, is getting more and more popular. The article gives basic information about eye tracking and two most crucial eye movements, i.e. fixations and saccades. It also lists the most important academic research centers in Poland that conduct linguistic research with the help of eye tracking. The next, and the most important, part of the article is a short characteristics of the chosen eyetracking parameters that are commonly used in different types of eye-tracking data analysis. They were chosen on the basis of the author’s own research experience in the field of experimental eye-tracking glottodidactics.
